Province of Iloilo Travel Forum

Hi, we are going to iloilo on the weekend of august first. we'll spend saturday afternoon on the mainland then the whole sunday in guimaras. my question is what to do in mainland iloilo? we're thinking of two options: Bulabog-Putian National park or Miag-ao church.
1. How far from the city are these two destinations from the city?
2. What's the best way to transport 16 people? We're open to commuting but are there possible jeepneys or vans for rent?

any other suggestions/destinations are most welcome. thanks!!!
btw, where's the best batchoy in town?

Is the place in the beach area? Good choice if with children? How about the rates? thanks

hi there! has anyone been to guimaras lately? i want to know if it's already safe and advisable to go there for island hopping? i'm not sure if the island has already recovered from the 2006 oil spill.

how much is the rate for the island hopping and what islands are part of the island hopping tour?

thanks in advance.

I'm planning to stay in guimaras for 3d/2n with my family this october. Is there any resort that offers an adventure package? Thanks

I just want to sit/swim on a nice beach, where there’s hardly any waves; maybe rent a cottage in front of the beach, the less people the better, any suggestions?

Is it safe to travel to Guimaras in this coming month of May ?

Is this place far from everywhere? Possible to explore the island easily? What mode? how much? thanks! I'm going April 21.

Hello,

I would just like to know if there are resorts that allows tent pitching? If so, how much do they charge?
Is there a 'free' beach, where one can just pitch a tent?



Thanks for the help.
